INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat your oven to 375. In a blender or food processor, proces the tofu, egg replacer, oil, maple syrup, almond extract and applesauce. In a large bowl, combine the flours, salt and baking powder. Make a well in the centre and fold in the wet ingredients, working until moistened. Toss the peach pieces in the nutmeg and cinnamon, and then fold into the batter (use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides, so that you don't lose any of the spices). Spoon batter into the cups of a 12-muffin pan (non-stick, or lined with muffin papers). Bake for 15 ~ 25 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick/cake tester inserted in the centre comes out clean. Cool briefly beore turning out onto a plate. A note about 'wholefood' baking: Fill the muffin cups very full, using all of the batter, and bake these muffins right away in a preheated oven. Wholefood batters rise best by this method (but they still don't rise as much as standard muffin mixes). Keep the muffins in the fridge when they're done; they freeze well for short periods of time. Substitutions: In place of almond extract - your fave flavouring extract, or this ingredient can be omitted Posted to fatfree digest V97 #206 by Jacqueline <still@bconnex.net> on Sep 10, 1997
A Message from our Provider:
“A thankful heart is one of the primary identifying characteristics of a believer. It stands in stark contrast to pride, selfishness, and worry. And it helps fortify the believer’s trust in the Lord and reliance of His provision, even in the toughest times. No matter how choppy the seas become, a believer’s heart is buoyed by constant praise and gratefulness to the Lord. #John MacArthur”
